Applicationfiledi April 5, 1916. Serial No. 89,03 2 1 T 0 all whom it mag ,conccrn Be it'known that I ALrRED WY. Mo To a citizen of the, United States, and a, resident of Derby Line, in the county of Orleans and State of Vermont, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Motor-Cycle Stands, of which the following isa. specification.
My invention relates tofmotor cycles, or more particularly to the stands therefor, and the main objectis toprovide a stand which overcomes the present necessity for manually lifting the rear of a motor cycle in order to bring the stand into operative position.
A further object is to provide such a device which is readily installed upon motor cycles of any type and without any change in the latter other than drilling several holes, and still further objects are to provide such stands which are simple in construction and use, anti-rattling during motoring, entirely out of the way when in use, and comparatively inexpensive.
My invention is fully described in the following specification, of which the accompanying drawings form a part, in which like characters refer to like parts in each of the views, and in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of the rear end of a motor cycle provided with my invention in inoperative position, an intermediate stage of bringing the same into operation being indicated by dotted lines; Fig. 2 is a similar view, reduced, with my invention in use to support the motor cycle, at the end of the lifting stage; Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the motor cycle in raised position; Fig. 4 is a section taken on the line H of Fig.1; and Fig. 5 is a detached view of my attachment.
Referring to the drawings, 5 represents a portion of the frame of a motor cycle, 6 the rear wheel, 7 the rear mudguard, 8 the stand similar to those at present provided and piv-. otedto the frame at 9, and 10 a spring latch for holding the stand 8 in raised or inoperative position during riding.
At present, when coming to rest, the stand 8 is dropped to the ground into the position indicated at 8 Fig. 1, and the motor cycle is then drawn rearwardly and the rear end lifted simultaneously until the stand 8 occupies the relationship with the motor cycle shown in full lines at 8", Fig. 3, this however being; a heavy lift, and, it was in order to overcome this that my invention was conceived,
Lnthepractice of my invention, Ifirstdrill the frame 5 at each side of the wheel 6 and below the axle of, the latter, as shown, atll, and'pass a, threaded end of a1 stud 12 there- 'through,;at each side of the motor cycle, and
outwardly extended, nuts 13 then being employed to secure the studs in position. The onterlends of, these studs are reduced in diameter to serve 'as bearings for rollers 14,- having grooved peripheries and held in place by nuts 15, the relative positions of these rollers being shown in Fig. 8. I next drill the stand 8 at opposite sides and secure pivot pins 16 thereto by means of nuts 17, and upon the outer ends of these pins 16 I mount a yoke shaped lever 18 the yoke of which is at the rear of the wheel 6 and the arms of which pass to opposite sides of the stand 8 and extend forwardly of the pivot pins 16 in similar cam shaped hooks 19 resting in the grooves of the respective rollers 14 and maintained in roller contact at all times by coil springs 20 against rattling. VVhe-n it is desired to bring the stand 8 into use, said stand is dropped from its latch into the position 8 thereby bringing the lever 18 into the dotted position shown in Fig. 1, after which foot pressure is exerted by the rider upon the rear end of the lever 18 to force this end toward the ground. This downward pressure of the rear end of the lever 18 causes the hook members 19 to raise the rollers let from their previous position with respect to the fulcrum 16 of the lever 18, the cam edges of the hook members 19 easing the strain of lifting efiect upon the rider but gradually raising the rear wheel from the ground until the rollers 14 reach their limit of movement in the bend of the hookmembers 19, as shown in Fig. 2, after which the motor cycle may be drawn rearwardly to carry the stand 8 into contact with the studs 12, Fig. 1, and thus carry the weight of the motor cycle beyond the base of the stand 8. To resume riding, the motor cycle need only be forced forwardly in the present manner and the attachment locked to the latch 10, my attachment not interfering with such movement in the least, as it is designed only for raising the weight of the motor cycle upon the stand 8.
. no change in the construction of any type of,
motor cycle now known to me.
I have shown the stand 8 and lever 18 of special shapes best adapted for ease of lifting the rear wheel of the motor cycle, but I reserve the right to make these of any desired shapes.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. The combination with a motor cycle anditsstand, of ayoke-shaped, foot-actuated, lever in pivotal connection with said stand for raising said motor cycle'thereonto, and
and provided with a hook-shaped cam at each side of said motor cycle, and rollers on said motor cycle against which said cams bear in raising said motor cycle. 7
3. As an article of manufacture, for use with a motor cycle and its stand; a yokeshaped lever provided with a hook-shaped cam at the outer end of each arm, and pivot pins intermediate the lengths of said arms for attachment to said stand.
